Patent number: 10505940Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing electronic tokens for device interactions. In some embodiments, a unified graphical user interface is provided for an account, for controlling the activation status and settings associated with authorized electronic devices used for conducting transactions on the account. The electronic devices may be programmed with an electronic token that allows a server to look up sensitive account information, although the electronic token does not divulge the account information itself. Therefore, if an electronic token is compromised or stolen, the account does not need to be closed, and sensitive information remains safe. Moreover, the unified graphical user interface provides detailed and highly customizable controls for settings and restrictions associated with each of the electronic tokens, without modifying or accessing sensitive account or personal information.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2016Date of Patent: December 10, 2019Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Paul Moreton, Lawrence Douglas, Thomas Poole, Thomas Christopher Clarke, Saejin Choi
